Mental Health Recognition in Our World Today

By Brianna Mattis 

2020 has plummeted American minds and their will to move forward. This is because our recognition is biased and is challenged on a day-to-day basis. Our reality is that not only Americans, but people all over the world struggle with mental health daily with a pandemic on the rise. 

Factors that play into this 

  • Who and what it affects--The impact!
  • How different people and genders respond
  • How we can move forward with the issue

How we are armored in knowing the resources to help us move to change

     Through this blog, the Armored Angels hope to provide you with the knowledge to educate, inspire, and armor yourself and others with resources. We will be focusing on five issues relevant to 2020: mental health, intersectionality, domestic violence, workplace equality, and reproductive rights. We will address how these issues have been impacted by the Covid-19 pandemic and the current political climate and what you can do to make a change. Together, we are empowered to create an equal, safe, and kind world. *To navigate the blog, simply click on the above pages.
